The thing is, on most of the method calls we won't need that at all. And it costs quite a bit, so I'm afraid that this variant is the way to go. Yes, it would be nicer to do that in caller, but... Dunno... Neither instance actually touches the mark after that destroy_mark and we have very few of those guys (fortunately). So removing this BUG_ON() instead might be the right thing to do. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
